Race Video: Tuned CLK550 vs. JB4 335

Well, here we go, finally, we have a race involving BB member blkclk550. After 30+ pages of keybord warfare races took place. Now, we are told the 335 was on a 100 octane map. Blaizon, the 335 owner, said he would run a 93 octane map. The CLK does pretty well seemingly getting the jump each time and holding it. The cars seem pretty evenly matched with the JB4 having a slight top end advantage. The commentary by whomever filmed was humorous but we could do without it. Either way, look at the vids and decide for yourself.

I concur with the announcers on the video's,im suprised at the performance of the CLK actually. not enough to be even slightly worried, but still, surprised..

what was the camera car? he seemed to be a bit faster than both..

The camera car was me. It wasn't a bit faster it was a hell of a lot faster then everyone that was with us. Ask John we did a couple 2nd gear rolls = ) there's a vid of me runnin the benz, and he just gets destroyed bad. I wonder if he will post that vid up....

by the looks of the video you were in D/DS and punched it after the 3rd honk - let the car slowly downshift, then take off amirite? You'll lose 2 cars off the bat this way.

I'm a 6mt. I would get wheelspin from a 30 punch since I was in 1st short shift into 2nd and play catchup. The clk had better traction at that speed than I. A 45 roll would work out better for me since I could be well into 2nd.

are you sure? have you trapped that in your car, or going off of what someone else has done?

yea i thought so too..

why no vids of nismo Vs anything.. like i said, a bit faster than the 110 mph beasts, but still nothing to be even remotly worried about

on a side note just had a quick run w/ BattaM on the way back.. 70-100 and he put 4-5 cars on me instantly.. (im 17psi/93/meth he was pump/no meth i believe)

$#@! that thing is fast.. the wife said "holy $#@!! what do you need to do to get that fast.."

isaid, "safely?dump about another 10K into the car"

There is only one vid of me racing the benz and I destroyed him. Besides the focus wasn't on me last nite. I was destroying everything that pulled up next to me. Ask Blaizon I ran him from a 2nd gear roll and ask him what happened. Like I said I'm not taking anything away from his car but full bolt ons and meth wouldn't make that ground up I put on him.

He needs RB Turbos to make it a fair race, I'm sure he would agree with me. But I'm still on baby boost its nothin. I can't wait to turn it up to 8 pounds.

I disagree, i think he just needs full bolt-ons and meth. Rb's i think will be too much for you
